Homebrew Actual Minotaur Species Details
Minotaurs are barrel-chested humanoids with heads resembling those of bulls. They are the direct result of a vile demonic ritual that mutates a natural race into a carnivorous, brutal fiend, unable to control it's own savagery. They are said to roam labyrinths where said sects perform ceremonies on those who end up lost in their way of the labyrinth.
Although most of the life of a minotaur is painted by violence and brutalization due to their demonic transfiguration, there are those who are capable of breaking through the mind warping primal instinct to gore and maim their prey, regaining their former personality. The cause of it could be divine, magical or merely the willpower of an unwilling victim.
To overcome your evil nature or to embrace the foul bestiality of the abyssal spells is the creed of many who retain their sanity.
